Not a big deal to most members here, but seeing a dusting of snow on the foothills of the Southern Sierra mountains from yesterday's winter storm is good news for our thirsty state! It (thankfully) means much more in the higher elevations.

This is looking east from my house looking into the Kern River Canyon.

In my neck of the woods we got about 6 ish inches of heavy wet snow overnight, another 2-3 are expected to fall this afternoon. Thankfully the storm fell on a day that I have off so I don't have to be out driving in it. Although I wanted to run (still might) I think I'll have to settle for dusting off the snowshoes instead.

Right now it's a cold, slushy mess out there! In about 3 hours, we're supposed to get hit with a severe winter storm and have a foot of snow by the morning... I think I may be closing shop early today!

Yes, 50s. It's about acclimation, and it's why so many folks move to SoCal from other parts of the country. When 50 is cold and 85 is hot, that means 72 is normal.
